Things To Do
Scilly is a unique and tranquil place, and you’d be forgiven for just finding a quiet spot to soak it all in… But if you do fancy a bit of adventure, there is plenty on offer. From guided coastal walks, historic archaeological sites, local markets, arts & crafts, and fine dining to gig rowing, wildlife safaris, bike riding, paddleboarding, pony trekking, and swimming with seals…. We’re sure you’ll find something to keep you entertained.
Visit Isles of Scilly website is a great place to check out What’s On, and many local businesses advertise here.
